Smile transmission swap (need info)

Hi guys I looked through most of the threads and didn't really see anything about swaping a manual transmission into an sc400 with the original v8. I have a 92 sc400 but the motor is and trans is out of a 97model. I just got the car a week ago and want to convert it to standard. I know its possible but need to know what is the best one to use with the stock v8 4.0 motor. And what will I need. Thanks ahead of time for ur comments and help.
